I think the NA subframe may be less though. I'll check my '95 Workshop Manual and let you know.

That would be appreciated as I'm about to take the car off the jackstands for the first time. Everytime I've been under it my eyes gander a questioning look at the subframe nuts and bolts.
I'm not sure if Ken and I are just using different terminology, so you can see for yourself what I'm talking about.

Thank you fellas. Considering I have an early model I think it would be best to back the torque off a hair or two for some of the nuts and bolts just to be safe.

Whenever I'm torquing fasteners, I always think of the late, great Carroll Smith who said to always err on the side of undertightening. He rarely saw part failures from undertightening, but he's seen countless failures from overtightening.
